Alison doest want to make money
She literally sent this message then blocked me so I could ask about food cost all because we didn't want to be forced anything Congrats on your engagement! Per food code, you are required to use a licensed caterer at our venue (although it doesn't need to be us, it could be HyVee). With our upstairs-only rental fee of 500, plus 500 bar guarantee, it might be possible to stay in budget, but it would depend on food costs. So how does she expect people to book with her ?
Response from vendor•Jul 22, 2024Apologies, Cody. I selected the "gently decline" option in Zola (I didn't realize would block you as this is a new platform for us) as your request clearly said “catering not forced," and we do require a licensed caterer. Since we have to pay to respond to you through Zola, this seemed the best way to proceed since it didn't sound like we'd be a good fit. If you had still been interested, we would have been happy to take a phone call to explain.Beautiful Venue
Sabrina and Alison are an absolute Joy to work with. They are very easy to work with and are quick to answer any questions. The venue is a big beautiful ball room with tall ceilings. It has a cute little bar too.
Very Nice Spot
Highly recommend. Clean and nice furnishing. I rented the spot for a high school class reunion and we were very happy with our choice and the location.
